Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• craft book
• professional decorations
• materials
• tools

1. Decide on the decorations that you will make for your wedding. Find a professionally made example of these decorations.

2. Examine the construction and material of the professionally made decorations. Write this information down. Also determine the tools that were required to make this thing.

3. Assemble the materials that were used in the professional decoration. Also lay in a supply of tools that you will need.

4. Make your first attempt at creating your own wedding decorations. Compare this to the professionally-made decoration.

5. Is the comparison favorable to your hand-made decoration? If not, then try again. Do not be surprised if it takes many attempts to create a nice-looking decoration.

Tips & Warnings

• Allow even more time than normal in the planning of a wedding if you intend to make your own decorations. Hasty work at the last minute nullifies the impact of hand-made quality.
• Purchase a craft book for useful tips and helpful shortcuts.
• Weddings require plenty of preparation and work as is. Don't commit to making your own decorations unless you are convinced that the extra work is worth it.
